Color xterm??

[Subba Rao]

Is color xterm a requirement for mutt's color feature?
I am using Slackware 4. The "ls" command has several color
options, where I see a different color for each file type.
If this xterm works for "ls" with color, then mutt's got to
work too. I have installed ncurses-5.0 and that is not helping
either.

Any pointers to get colors working...
